day 4

[doolz]

ive given up the evil ganja
now ppl who know me know i say this all tyhe time buyt trhis time i feel its different
hard as feckkin hell but think im ova the worst of the shakes justanother week or so to go


its mad its only 4 days and i feel like ie got more energy and am much more on the ball


ganja like booze is ok in moderation but too much destorys you wholesale


i know ganja addiction is all in the mind but its so easy like a fag smoker to make excuses that its ok and it doesnt harm you but it does


its soul destory demotivating and mind numbing and thats why im quitting


wish me luck




ps im handing me notice to my shity job today bit nervouis opf being out of work but i cant go on doing a job that i hate even getting up in the morning for so wish me even more luck

I'm very proud of you doolz. I know how hard it is - have done it myself. Gave up smoking a couple of years ago - went to hell and back . Still crave now every now and again but it is worth it, so keep going. Every time you feel like giving in - come on here and start posting. Don't do what I did and eat!!!!

Congratulations on handing in your notice. I too hate my job at the moment and am looking elsewhere but I'm not quite at the stage you are at - just be strong and follow your heart .

What do you do anyway???

[doolz]

currently working for currys as a warehouse manager
used to be a salesman but im sick of the general public and its foul mouthed weasely whining

 

[doolz]

ps thanks fer the support babe

Go for it m8, best thing you can do. I used to smoke 24/7 then I quit in 1998 after being in bed with a flue unable to smoke for 2 weeks I didnt even think about starting again.

Youre right its like all substances is OK in moderation but when it becomes a daily, hourly or to be honest 20 minutesly habbit then it does take its toll on your self motivation.

As an anecdote I'll add that after quitting I went on to open my own bussiness which is still going very strong, something which I would never have done if I had remained stoned all day.


P.S Im no anti-drug spokesman coz I still occasionally fling the ching and I knock back a fair few pints a week...but its all about control and it being something special and not a routine.

 

[fugjostle]

wow... congrats doolz m8

I quit the chong way back... completely agree with you... moderation is the key

Hope you keep it up

Goo luck on both counts Doolz fella, Am sure ya doing the right thing and you'll look back and think "Thank fek for that, turned out nice!!!!"

 

[sweet sensation]

Good luck Doolz, I know how hard it can be if you ever need some support you know where I am

On the job front, good on ya for giving it up I know how much you hated it. Im looking for something else too, I registered to Workthing.com and its quite good. Also monster jobs is a good site too. Get the Evening Standard on a Monday.

A few agencies Ive just been recommended (by my boss !!!! :| ) are: Reed, Blue Arrow, something called Adiscs or Adeco, not sure which (but theyre generally for jobs in the city) and Choice (0208 367 6111), not sure what thats for tho ! :S

My advice is dont go to the job centre cos they all pay shit :S

Good luck

Sweet xx

 

[Red Mancunian]

Well done on both counts, fella.

I can't the remember the last time I had an encounter with Mr Ganja, I'd say it was April 2001 when I was working away in Hull, I get the urge now and again, but I can't be bothered to go and get any.

Good on yer matey.

As for the job, I can sympathise fully with what you've done - I quit my job in February and gave 3 weeks notice, and I had nothing to go to.

I set up my own business doing what I used to do for my employer.

Have you thought about that? If you're good with 'puters you could try to set up your own business, maybe making them or repairing them? How about one of these 'computer doctors' you see advertised in the local papers? Even people who are good with computers themselves use these people, because they often don't have time to fix stuff themselves.

It's not easy (setting up on yer own), by any means mate, but it's not as difficult as some people would have you believe either.

You just need some determination.

You've made the right choice by leaving your job you were unhappy in.

If you need any advice on the sort of things you need to do setting up on your own (not that I'm an expert, but it's all very recent to me), just say so fella, and I'd be more than happy to help you in any way I can.

Either way, good luck mate, it can only get better from this point onwards, and IT WILL, I promise ya.

 

[doolz]

cheers everyone your all stars

red manc m8 yes id love some advice i have thought about setting somthing exactly like u mentioned is that what u are doing

any and all advice is apreciated

 

[glazzy]

well done doolz i think it's all good news!!!

all the money in the world won't buy job satisfaction

i gave up smoking about 2 weeks ago (just regal king type ciggies not the special kind) and it was quite hard to do but i do feel better already!! ..... well done to you!!

Remeber b strong, it's a long journey but there's a big lite at the end of the tunnel & it's there jus waitin 4 u 2 get there. I know u can do it & u've got every1 on here rite behind ya!!! U remember 2 believe in urself & wot ur doing & u'll get there!!!

 

[Crystal]

Well Doolz - you have also given me confidence.

I am going to give my notice in tomorrow too :S

I have been thinking about it for a while and have finally made my decision and I have just written my letter of resignation and I feel good about it

So, thank you for your help too Doolz - I am sure that we will both be fine .

If there is anything I can do to help you with your business/new job hunting let me know - but unfortunately I am hopeless with computers!!

WIsh me luck (about 1 pm tomorrow)!

Luv Cookie xx
